Another 5-Star Review for The Golden Rule

I am proud to share this lovely review…

Story For More Than Children, April 23, 2016
By M. Moran Bishop

This review is from: The Golden Rule (Kindle Edition)

Once again Sherrill Cannon has written a wonderful story with a very special message.

The Golden Rule, is penned for the young, but is much more than a brilliantly written rhyming tale. It teaches how great it would be if everyone gave to each other what they would like to receive.

The illustrations are charming and go wonderfully with the story. Ms. Cannon’s clever and intelligent gift for telling a story in rhyme that does not talk down to a child, but instead is consistently at their level is unsurpassed in today’s children’s books.

Kudos to Ms. Cannon for another fabulous book. I highly recommend it.

(This is also a nice reminder that The Golden Rule is also an eBook now!)

Illustration Award

“Beauty certainly is in the eye of the beholder and nothing illustrates that truth better than My Fingerpaint Masterpiece written by Sherrill S. Cannon and illustrated by Kalpart. When a child is interrupted from a fingerpainting of his dog while at school, it is the start of a chain of events that leads one to wonder exactly how people determine what art becomes a masterpiece. On the way home, the child’s painting is blown out of his hands and lands in an art shop. It is then accidentally entered into an art contest and after the judges turn it in every direction, they decide that it is the winning entry. Disgusted with the outcome and the way that everyone is attempting to discover the deep meaning of his painting, the child tries to get everyone’s attention, but no one will believe him.

Sherrill S. Cannon and Kalpart have created a delightful story that actually gets right to the heart of what I think about some of the “masterpieces” that I have seen. My Fingerpaint Masterpiece expresses a truth about abstract art that few would ever admit. Splash several different colors on a canvas and anyone who is an “official critic” with enough imagination to make it into something will determine that it is a masterpiece. The colorful interpretation of the story by the illustrator of this story far exceeds many of the “masterpieces” in the modern art world in my opinion. Funny, colorful and brilliant, My Fingerpaint Masterpiece will put a satisfied smile on your face as you consider how silly some people can be about art.”

More Kid Comments about The Golden Rule

The Golden Rule – Treat others the way you’d like to be treated.

Love this story from a grandmother who gave The Golden Rule to her grands for their birthdays..

“M. and W. came into my room when they woke up this morning and I was glad to have the book Sherrill S. Cannon gave me to give them for their birthday. Her latest rhyming children’s book, The Golden Rule, elicited a few comments:

6 year old W. after ‘reading’ it said ‘this book is like her others. There is a problem in every book and the kids are trying to figure it out. It was funny how he confused rule with ruler.’

M… ‘my major ‘rule’ is “treat others the way you want to be treated” so I really like this book.’

Another winner!”

Thanks for sharing.  It’s nice to know children like to be nice!!
